Musical 'Paenleteo' Online Recorded Broadcast on the 31st View original image

[Asia Economy Reporter Park Byung-hee] The musical 'Fan Letter' will be broadcast as a recorded live stream on Naver TV and V LIVE at 8 PM on the 31st. This recorded broadcast was made possible as 'Fan Letter' was selected as one of the top 4 domestic musicals by the Korea Tourism Organization.


The recorded broadcast footage is from the 2017 performance at Dongsung Art Center. The cast includes Kim Jong-gu, Moon Tae-yu, So Jeong-hwa, Jung Min, Yang Seung-ri, Lee Seung-hyun, and Kwon Dong-ho. Prior to the live performance broadcast, an interview introducing the performance with the two main actors Kim Jong-gu and Moon Tae-yu will also be presented.


The musical 'Fan Letter' is a modern fiction musical inspired by episodes of Lee Sang and Kim Yu-jeong, representative writers of the Korean literary world during the Japanese colonial period in the 1930s when freedom was suppressed. It adds historical facts and imagination. It features the Chil-inhoe, a group of writers who loved and longed for literature during the Japanese colonial period, modeled after the real pure literature organization Guinhoe, capturing the modern era's atmosphere and artistic sensibility of the time.


'Fan Letter' was developed after being selected for the 2015 Korea Creative Content Agency's excellent creator discovery support project 'Glocal Musical Live' Season 1. From its premiere in 2016 to the third run held last year at Doosan Art Center Yeon-gang Hall, it has proven its artistic quality and popularity with an average seat occupancy rate of over 90% and a cumulative audience of over 100,000. In August 2018, it became the first Korean original musical to perform at the National Taichung Theater in Taichung, Taiwan. At that time, it sold out the 2,000-seat grand theater, drawing attention, and successfully participated in the '2018 K-Musical Roadshow' held at 'SAIC Shanghai Culture Square' in Shanghai, China, gaining recognition for its artistic quality and commercial success overseas.



Meanwhile, Korea Tourism Organization's K-Musical On Air will broadcast popular domestic musicals including 'Fan Letter' at 8 PM on Naver TV and V LIVE for four days until September 3.
